MX304 Universal Routing Platform

The MX304 Universal Routing Platform delivers massive scale and efficiency for space- and power-constrained environments. This carrier-grade, multiservice platform with extensive automation capabilities enables operators to meet constantly expanding bandwidth, subscriber, and service demands. The form factor and features make the MX304 an ideal fit in the business edge and metro Ethernet environments, as well as data center and colocation facilities.

Powered by Trio 6 silicon, the MX304 scales to 4.8 Tbps of throughput in just 2 RU, delivering unmatched edge router density and performance while consuming just 0.3 Watts/Gb of throughput. In addition, because it’s built on the Junos OS, the MX304 delivers nearly endless data-plane programmability, giving you the freedom to implement new network innovations.
